This is my first time growing bell peppers. I have grown many other types of plants and I have never seen leaf growth like this. It was grown from seed. It now has two separate sets of leaves that have dual tip mutation or 'bifurcated leaf' I believe it's called. Is this plant okay? Is there something causing this that I should be concerned about? Twice I have had to clean the plant of a small number of aphids, but have had no other issues. I do not use any chemical pesticides on my plants.
I couldn't find really any helpful information about this searching online so I'm really wondering how abnormal this is.

I think bifurcated has more to do with how multi-lobed leaves grow. I would define what your have as a split of the apical meristem - when, for some reason, the growth point of a leaf splits and grows into a Siamese twin. It could be some weird genetic thing in your plant or, it could be something (an aphid?) damaged the leaf tip enough to cause this reaction.

Thank you for your response, Daisy I have soooo much to learn about botany for sure!

I was hoping some members on this forum -that have far more experience gardening than myself- might say they've seen it happen on some of their plants here and there and it's not really all that abnormal ect.. but maybe it is just really super weird! Haha

So on that note, would anyone be concerned about eating the peppers if it is in fact a genetic thing with this particular plant?

Silly genetics doesn't make for inedible fruit, just a weird a weird plant. I can't wait to see what the fruits do.

I thought you might say that Daisy haha

It was making me wonder about the seeds I use and what exactly the plant they came from might have been exposed to..
But I was given dozens of seed packets by a friend and so of course I'm going to use them! (They're Livingston seed which I'm pretty sure are fine.) In the future, when I buy my own seeds, I want to use only organic.

I am also very interested to see what these peppers are going to look like...
